American Indians and Alaska Natives are historically more likely than individuals of other racial and ethnic groups to need treatment for substance abuse and addiction. Reversely, American Indians and Alaska Natives are more prone to seek treatment on their own will more than other racial/ethnic groups. Almost 50% of American Indian and Alaska Native drug and alcohol treatment admissions show up to rehab as criminal justice clients, meaning they have most likely agreed to a court ordered diversion program to receive treatment in lieu of jail times for their charges. So as you can see, there is a definite need for different types of treatment programs to cover all of the very unique requirements of American Indian or Alaska Natives, including addiction rehabilitation programs in native languages.
One of the barriers that American Indian and Alaska Natives in Dewitt face is access to comprehensive services, especially those who reside in secluded locations. Programs providing drug and alcohol rehab services in rural areas often are not able to offer strategic planning designed to meet the needs and demands of this special group of people including addiction treatment services in their native language. American Indian and Alaska Native clients can work with elders and stakeholders working in mental health services for their tribe or region to find out which treatment services are an option for them through which treatment facilities, and which ones will work best for their particular situation. There have been numerous grants sanctioned in recent years to help pay for these types of rehab services for American and Alaska Native clients, that have very effectively established programs which provide evidence based treatment that also integrates culturally sensitive rehab services delivered in their language which are provided by bi-lingual staff members.
